Maybe a little lighter Pudd authority story. Half of Big Bear was on fire as well as most of Arrowhead. The Santa Anas were blowing and I was Float tubing in a calm spot just outside Sailboat cove. It was at least 90 degrees. Ashes were falling kind of heavy but slowly. A young lady Lifeguard comes up to me and I stated to her " Kind of hot to be snowing this hard " . She looks down at me and explains " Sir, thats not snow. It's ashes from a fire in the mountains. It never snows here.". Totally serious. I bet she went back and told her equally clueless Guardmates the story of the Snow Guy.....No wonder the Cops come up and use them.
